What should I do if my 9.5-year-old son, who weighs 30 kg, is still experiencing a stomach ache 45 minutes after taking half a tablet of Cyclopam for vomiting and stomach pain?
Cyclopam (which contains dicyclomine and paracetamol) can take up to an hour to fully work, so it may just need a little more time. Please do not give him another dose right now to avoid medication overload. Encourage him to rest in a comfortable position and offer small, frequent sips of water or oral rehydration solutions to keep him hydrated. If his stomach ache worsens, if he cannot keep fluids down, or if he develops a fever, please contact his pediatrician or visit the nearest clinic.
